  NOT AN ACCIDENT Isaiah 44:1-5 Devotional:- “Thus says the LORD who made you And formed you from the womb, who will help you: 'Fear not, O Jacob My servant; And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen” (V. 2) In discovering the purpose of your creation, it is important that you know that you did not evolve accidentally. You are a product of the conscious plan of God. The word of God says before we were formed in our mother’s womb, He knew us. This means, before you were in the womb of your parent you were first in the womb of the mind of God (Jeremiah1:5) God prescribe every single detail about your life before you were made. You colour, skin, hair or your race. He determines your skills, your uniqueness or your natural talents (Psalm 139:15). Your parent may not have planned your birth but God did. He chose your mother and your father to form the blood group He wants for you. He makes sure that you are raised in the right community and your background. All these things were determined...

BOOK OF LOVE

BOOK OF LOVE

1 John 2:5-11
Devotional:- "But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him". (v. 5) 

    The good manual and text book from where to learn the character of love is the word of God. There are different types of love but the greatest kind of love is the God’s kind of love. This is the love that has made God to endure with man from creation. This is the love that make God to give the world His only son as a sacrifice for our sins (1 John 4:10). This is the love that made God want to live with men eternally. 

If anyone wants to grow the attitude of love, the bible is the first text book. It teaches and show us the practical way of love; from the love of God to man in the Garden of Eden, to the practical presence of Jesus on earth. To the death and resurrection of Jesus. 

We all should learn to study and meditate on the word of God. It is in it we can grow the attitude of love. The word of God is the love letter to the church (John 13:35; Ephesians 5:24-25). No one put aside a lover’s letter except there is a breakdown of relationship. So when you don't study the word of God, you are not in terms with God. Remember, God is love (1 John 4:7-8). So you need to grow to be like your father- Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to love your word.

“A lover’s letter is treated as the lover”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
